US Airways has now launched their version of the AA’s boost and renew status offers that is actually identical (what a surprise!).
US Airways Dividend Miles members that are within 15,000 elite qualifying miles or 15 segments short on qualifying for Silver, Gold or Chairmans status can purchase the missing miles/segments.
Those that are missing more miles/segments can purchase the Silver or Gold status outright. You cannot boost or renew Platinum status, as it is going away when the program mergers to AAdvantage.
You can access this offer on US Airways’ website here.
Here’s the eligibility and price grid:

Conclusion
You should first calculate the number of combined elite qualifying miles and segments that you have credited to AA and US, as these will both counted when the 2015 membership status is determined. If you are then short on miles or segments, you can consider this offer.
